Changed by Henry Knipe, 16 Jun 2015

Updates to Article Attributes

Body was changed:

Articles pertaining to normal anatomy require a different structure, and the following subheadings are recommended:

==========================================================================

As with all other articles, the introductory paragraph should introduce the anatomical term and aim to give an interesting summary. The first sentence should contain the title of the article in bold

Summary

  • location: (this first bullet point will depend on the anatomical structure)
  • blood supply:
  • nerve supply:
  • relations:

Gross anatomy

Articulations
Attachments
Musculotendinous
Ligamentous
Relations and/or Boundaries

Blood supply

Nerve supply

Lymphatic supply

Histology

Variant anatomy

Having information about normal variation as well as the frequency of such variation is key for radiological anatomy articles.

Radiographic features

Plain film
Ultrasound
CT
MRI
Nuclear medicine

Development

Development, both fetal, neonatal and paediatric, is key to understanding pathology in children.

Related pathology

This section should include links to pertinent related pathology, particularly if the condition has an anatomical basis.
